I'd like to share the birthday card for my father in law's 70th anniversary. He goes fishing to Norway every year, so I decided to take this theme for his card.
I used papers from the DCWV Out in the Wild Paper Stack and the Foiled Cardstock Stack.

The main image is a stamp from Designs by Ryn. I embossed it with WOW! Colourblend Misty Sky and colored it with watercolour pencils and Brushos. My tiny die cuts, that are my shaker glitter are cut with a die from Marianne Design.
I used a Sizzix alphabet die and Distress Glitter Forest Moss for my "70".

Recently I was accepted to the DecoArt Blogger Outreach program. Today I'd like to share my first tag with. I enjoy making tags, to try out new techniques, products and ideas. I use them later as a card front, in my art journal or just for home decor.

I started with a layer of DecoArt media Modeling Paste and the Andy Skinner "Alphabet Spaghetti" stencil. After this was dry I added Fluid Acrylics Blue Green Light. I used stamps from Viva Las VegaStamps to add more interest on my background. Finally I added some colour splatters with Fluid Acrylics Carbon Black. I wiped the edges with a black oil pastel.

A while ago my kids collected some playing cards from the supermarket. We have lots of them twice, so I decided to make myself some oracle cards. Today I want to share one of them. My main image is the elephant from the Rubber Dance African Animals.

There are two weeks left to join our January Colour Challenge. We picked a winter theme this time and we do love its glorious colours!

I
created a mixed media tag with a snowy theme. The background is created
with Gelatos and molding paste. I used different background stamps for
some more texture. My sentiment is a mix from the Winter Wonderland's "let it snow" and a free printable from MixedUpMag. The birdie is a die from Die-Namites. I covered it with red Stickles glitter.I used some corrugated cardboard from DCWV to create a fence for my bird.
